Good information, thanks! 👍 I just picked up a used 2020 with 49 miles on it back in September. From what I understand, Kawie designed that weak point into the driveshaft to protect the internals on the tranny so it would break before tearing anything else up. Not 100% sure though. You know how it is when you've "heard" something 😉
Kinda where I'm stuck at ! Mine is really loose right now and thinking of upgrading shaft and other parts associated with the drive shaft. But something has to be a weak link , to protect a major problem with transmission or front diff . Love my machine though
Wow! I’ve had mine for a year now, I’ve been lucky. Haven’t broke a driveshaft or Axle yet. I switched to 35in RockZillas back in July. Was worried about breaking axles but been good so far.
Thanks for the videos. So how’d you break it? Do you have the video? Was it caused by the wheels spinning and then suddenly catching traction or was it a stationary break with no wheel spin?
It broke under pressure much like an axle would. Crested the top of an obstacle under full power. When the front came down it snapped. I'll try to find the video and post it.

Definitely know it's my carrier bearing, so guess I'll be changing that out.
This is the second video I've seen with a briken axle. Hope it's not an ongoing issue with the krx, as I'm hoping to purchase one around May next year
Driveline not the Axle

These machines are beasts! I guess the stock driveshafts are the weak link. Thanks for watching! Happy holidays!
